When to Use Coaching
Coaching is a vehicle for gaining self-knowledge and awareness, so you can choose the right path forward. Change is a constant in life and we are better prepared to face it when we are in alignment with who we are. Coaching provides a non-judgemental safe space that can be used for checking in with oneself, evaluating a situation, expanding the perspective and available options, strategizing an action plan, and following up its execution.
For those new to it coaching may look like a gamble. Be sincere with yourself and the dice will always be weighted in your favour.
The wisdom inside you will provide the answers.
What to expect
As your coach, I will provide a safe and comfortable space, free of judgment, so we can have a productive conversation focused on achieving results. Picture yourself in the driving seat of the car that best suits you, and heading to where you want to be. I will be siting in the co-pilot chair, listening, asking questions, and keeping us enroute. We will not examine the past, but we will acknowledge the role it plays in who we are and how we perceive things. Through our coaching conversations you will gain clarity and awareness, identify the strengths that will drive you forward and reconnect with your wisdom.

Who am I?
Based in Western Canada, I am a Certified Executive Coach by Royal Roads University and an Associate Certified Coach by the International Coaching Federation. I studied law in Mexico City and have a Master’s in Public International Law from Leiden University in the Netherlands, and a Master’s in Journalism from the University of British Columbia. I bring to the table over 15 years of experience as a business consultant supporting the leadership of North American organizations in the planning and execution of their business and public affairs agendas. … and 16 of ongoing mindfulness practice.
Through coaching I provide my clients with a creative approach to achieve business and personal goals by drawing on each person’s unique abilities and developing a strategic mindset. I am certified in helping individuals and organizations increase their performance and engagement. Among the people I have worked for are business owners, executive team members and emerging leaders of public, private and non-profit organizations.
I was a member of the advisory teams of two Mexican Presidents and sat at the Board of Directors of a business newspaper. I was the CEO of a cargo airline start-up, and have designed and executed successful advocacy and communication strategies for Canadian, American and Mexican organizations.
I help individuals reconnect with their inner wisdom and find their own answers.
I am a freelance journalist and a songwriter with two released albums. Since 2003, I have been practicing Mindfulness and collaborating with a number of altruistic organizations that promote awareness and a healthier mindset.
